On Heartless Bastards new record, Arrow, the eccentric, hypnotic nature of
songwriter Erika Wennerstroms voice is captured by producer Jim Eno (Spoon)
who helps blend the bands driving, straight-forward Rock N Roll into a
record that sounds unique and refreshing. Arrow instantly feels fearless and
marks a major step forward for a band who continues develop with every
release. Thanks to support from the likes of David Letterman, NPR, and a
cameo appearance in the hit NBC show Friday Night Lights, Heartless Bastards
show no sign of slowing down. Their past three albums have consecutive
increases in sales from 20K(Stairs and Elevators) to 30K(All This Time) to
40K (The Mountain). Early press feedback has been unanimously positive, the
most common response is that of Arrow being the Heartless Bastards
career-defining record. Perhaps most exciting are the early indicators at
radio, with WXPN, KCRW, WFPK, WFUV, KUT, and KXT already adding the record
to their rotation
